Black Holes as a Collider of High Energy Particles

Abstract

According to the Banados-Silk-West (BSW) process, rotating black holes can act as particle colliders capable of achieving arbitrarily high center-of-mass energy (CME), provided that a specific angular momentum of one of the particles is present. In this discussion, we demonstrate that both Kerr black holes and Schwarzschild black holes could serve as potential sources of high-energy particles in the polar region.
